Glue Review





E6000
Medium Viscosity Clear

This is my favorite glue to use when applying rhinestones to any of my costumes, accessories, etc. It dries strong and clear.

What you need:
  • E6000 Glue
  • A small wooden stick of sorts
  • Hot wax
  • Rhinestones - Spend the extra $$ to get real crystal rhinestones as they reflect a tremendous amount of light. You will need less rhinestones in the end.
  • Something that you want to apply Bling to.

How to apply:

The trick is to use a thin chopstick or something wood (a toothpick is too small). Dip one end in a bit of wax and mold a Q-tip like look on the end. This end will be used to pick up the rhinestones (face up).

Dab a tiny (a little goes a long way) amount of glue on the end with no wax and place on garment or accessory. Use the end with wax to pick up the rhinestone and apply!

Have fun and remember to do this in a WELL ventilated area.
